Knowles Reports Q4 & Full Year 2019 Financial Results and Provides Outlook for Q1 2020
Q4 Revenues Up 5 Percent Y/Y
Revenues from Non-Mobile More Than 70 Percent of Total Sales in 2019
Record Cash From Operations of $124 million in 2019
ITASCA, Ill., Feb. 4, 2020 - Knowles Corporation (NYSE: KN), a market leader and global provider of advanced micro-acoustic, audio processing, and precision device solutions, today announced results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019.
“In the fourth quarter, we reported revenues of $234 million, within our guidance range and up 5 percent from the year ago period as strong sales into the Ear and IoT markets were offset by continued soft trends in Mobile,” said Jeffrey Niew, president and CEO of Knowles. “In Precision Devices, fourth quarter sales were up double digits year-over-year, however, gross margins for this segment were below expectations resulting in EPS that was below our guidance range. We anticipate total company gross margin improvement in 2020.”
“We ended 2019 with total company revenue up 3 percent, despite a weak handset market, demonstrating the benefits of our strategy to deliver high value, differentiated solutions to a diverse set of growing end markets. In addition, we delivered record cash from operations, representing over 14 percent of sales. I expect our strategy to continue to deliver shareholder value by driving revenue growth with strong operating leverage and cash flow for full year 2020 and beyond,” continued Niew.

First Quarter 2020 Outlook
The forward looking guidance for the quarter ending March 31, 2020 on a continuing operations basis is as follows:
GAAP | Adjustments | Non-GAAP | |
Revenues | $160 to $190 million | — | $160 to $190 million |
Gross Profit Margin | 36.5 to 39.5% | 1% | 37.5 to 40.5% |
EPS | ($0.02) to $0.06 | $0.10 | $0.08 to $0.16 |
Q1 2020 GAAP results are expected to include approximately $0.07 per share in stock-based compensation and $0.03 per share in amortization of intangibles and debt discount.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the GAAP results included in this press release, Knowles has presented supplemental non-GAAP gross profit, earnings before interest and income taxes, adjusted earnings before interest and income taxes, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, as well as other metrics on a non-GAAP basis that exclude certain amounts that are included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure to facilitate evaluation of Knowles’ operating performance. Non-GAAP results are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP information should be considered a supplement to, and not a substitute for, financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release do not have standard meanings and may vary from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Knowles believes that non-GAAP measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating Knowles’ performance for business planning purposes. Knowles also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in Knowles’ opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance including, for example, stock-based compensation, certain intangibles amortization expense, fixed asset impairment charges, restructuring, production transfer costs, and other charges which management considers to be outside our core operating results. Knowles believes that its presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Knowles uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, see the reconciliation table accompanying this release.

Notes:
(1) | In addition to the GAAP financial measures included herein, Knowles has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain amounts that are included in the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Knowles believes that non-GAAP measures are useful as supplements to its GAAP results of operations to evaluate certain aspects of its operations and financial performance, and its management team primarily focuses on non-GAAP items in evaluating Knowles' performance for business planning purposes. Knowles also believes that these measures assist it with comparing its performance between various reporting periods on a consistent basis, as these measures remove from operating results the impact of items that, in Knowles' opinion, do not reflect its core operating performance. Knowles believes that its presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is useful because it provides investors and securities analysts with the same information that Knowles uses internally for purposes of assessing its core operating performance. |
(2) | Production transfer costs represent duplicate costs incurred to migrate manufacturing to facilities primarily in Asia. These amounts are included in the corresponding Gross profit and Earnings from continuing operations before interest and income taxes for each period presented. |
(3) | In 2019, Other expenses of $4.4 million represent expenses related to shareholder activism and the remaining Other expenses relate to the acquisition of the MEMS Microphone Application-specific integrated circuit (“ASIC”) Design Business from ams AG by the Audio segment and the acquisition of DITF Interconnect Technology, Inc. by the Precision Devices segment. In 2018, Other expenses in Gross profit and Operating expenses represent expenses related to acquisitions and the remaining Other expenses represent an adjustment to pre-spin-off pension obligations. |
(4) | Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) upon conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, for GAAP purposes we are required to recognize imputed interest expense on the Company’s $172.5 million of convertible senior notes due 2021 that were issued in a private placement in May 2016. The imputed interest rate is 8.12% for the convertible notes due 2021, while the actual coupon interest rate of the notes was 3.25%. The difference between the imputed interest expense and the coupon interest expense is excluded from management’s assessment of the Company’s operating performance because management believes that this non-cash expense is not indicative of its core, ongoing operating performance. |
(5) | Income tax effects of non-GAAP reconciling adjustments are calculated using the applicable tax rates in the jurisdictions of the underlying adjustments. Adjustments are also made to exclude certain impacts of the Tax Reform Act and the resulting consequences that were accounted for as uncertain tax positions. |
(6) | The non-GAAP reconciling adjustments are those adjustments made to reconcile Earnings from continuing operations before interest and income taxes to Adjusted earnings from continuing operations before interest and income taxes. |
(7) | The number of shares used in the diluted per share calculations on a non-GAAP basis excludes the impact of stock-based compensation expense expected to be incurred in future periods and not yet recognized in the financial statements, which would otherwise be assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method. In addition, the Company entered into convertible note hedge transactions to offset any potential dilution from the convertible notes. Although the anti-dilutive impact of the convertible note hedges is not reflected under GAAP, the Company includes the anti-dilutive impact of the convertible note hedges in non-GAAP diluted average shares outstanding, if applicable. |
